Investigation on Properties and Flow Degree of Rubberized Mortar under Dynamic Load in Metro

It is one of focus topics that metro vibration affects foundations and environments. Assumed that crumb rubber mortar can be injected into foundations to form separate vibration layerbecause crumb rubber mortar is with better ductility and properties of vibration resistance,the layer decreases the effect of transportation load on foundation. Different diameters and volumes of rubber power were joined into the mortar to form rubber mortar by experiments. Then their flow degree and strenghth were measured and compared with ordinary mortar. The result shows that the rubber with smaller diameters can improve flow properties of mortar. When the volume inserting is ten percent of total sand volume, the flow property is best. The rubber mortar with best flow property was conserved for twenty-eight days. The damp property and impact resistant were determined under metro dynamic load. The experiment found that when the volume inserting is twenty percent of total volume, the damp value was improved twenty percent with twenty-five percent of absorbing energy and better separate vibration property. Therefore, the separate vibration layer can largely reduce the effect of vibration from metro and decrease the settlement of foundations of metro.
